<B>THE PROBLEM
</B>
The Ussr Labs team has recently discovered a memory problem in the RealServer 7 Server.
What happens is, by preforming an attack with specially-malformed information to port 7070
it will cause the proccess containg the services to stop responding.
The Exploit: It will take down the RealServer causing it to stop all streaming media brodcasts, making it non-functional, (untill Reboot)
